There was an (ex)coworker of mine (The Idiot) who used to always ask another coworker (Nice Guy) if he (The Idiot) could use Nice Guy's laptop to check Facebook, which was fine but he'd never log out. Nice Guy kept asking & reminding & telling him to log out, but it never worked. After probably five or six months of this, my coworkers decided that action was needed, steps had to be taken, and Facebook statuses were in dire need of updating. Also, I changed his language from "English" to "English (Pirate)". And to top it all off, we had told him we'd do something like that if he didn't start logging out, we asked him about where he'd logged in recently without logging out, suggested that it was probably somebody(s) he knew just pulling a prank on him and that he should think about who might do such a thing, did everything short of handing him a signed a confession, and he never figured out it was us! As far as I know he still thinks somebody hacked his account.gigag04 wrote:If someone runs out of the report writing room to take a hot call and stays logged into the computer, we like to e-mail the chief a letter of resignation. There have also been emails sent out with all sorts of confessions. I got one today which said the officer wanted to email us and let us know he always wanted be a star in a musical.
The motto is always log out.
There are some things I've done in life that I feel guilty about; things that I have regrets over; deeds that I wish I hadn't done. But changing his Facebook language is not one of them.
I might have to try that one.
